BUaEYs GOLDEN BR1CKKARD.
The Bricks Turned Out OF 1t Worth . Quar-.
ter OF = Dollar Apiece.

FREETowN, CAL, July 4--Henry Bugee
came here few months ago and established a
brickyard. Nobody know exactly what he ex-
pected to do In that line, as there was no great
demand for building material; but as Bugee
seemed satisfied there was no remonstrance.
The brickmaker was Industrious and. as he
did not make many sales, the pile OF bricks In
his yard grew prodigiousy One day about
q fortnight ago Bugee left suddenly for Sacra.
mento and on his return half a dozen men
came with him. Then the secret OF his visit
leaked out.
Having had some experience as miner. Bu-
gee became convinced soon after his arrival
was using, but as 1t did not seom to be In pay
ing quantities he paid little attention tojt At
length no came upon a patch that stimulated
his curiosity. and taking box full OF IL with
him he went to sacramento, where he had It
assayed with the result OF finding that 1t was
worth $40 o ton. Bugee then called In a few
friends and they are now preparing to work his
"brickyard" for gold.
An interesting feature of tho strike Is the
effect on the market value OF tho great stack OF
bricks which he has on hand. 1t IL roughly
figured that each one OF these Is worth twenty
1--WE cents and measures will be taken to get
the dust out OF them. In town there Is ono
house built entirely OF these bricks which the
owner is thinking OF tearing down, and another
man has a house partly finished and contract
with Bugee for several thousand more bricks.
which will be delivered according 10 agree

the first honest man who ever bore that title.
